Essential Question Post #1

Right now my personal essential question is: What can I do to make the world around me a better place? One thing that I've been thinking about a lot that annoys me is all the trash around campus, especially in the area in between Bingham and Pauahi where a lot of sophomores hang out. There is trash all along the side of the bushes next to Bingham, near the two green tables, and around the trash can that people were trying to throw in the trash but missed. Even though there have been announcements made in assembly about how dirty the area is, and how we should be trying to keep it more clean, a lot of people still litter. Also, no one ever really picks up the trash. Instead they just leave it there for other students or usually the cleaning staff to clean up. Even though I'm not the one who is leaving the trash all around there, I think that i should tryp picking up some of the trash and throwing it away instead of just walking through and leaving it there. That would make the hang out area a much nicer place, and make things easier for the cleaning staff at school.
